Korean ski vacation... so good!!




































We just got back from our 4 night/5 day Christmas ski trip and it was so much fun! It was Dan and I along with 3 other teachers/friends from our school who are all from Canada, Dan, Linda and Leah.

We had a ski hill view from our 14th floor hotel room (see pic of hill). Sue (a Korean teacher at our school) hooked us up with the accommodations through her husband's membership at this resort that was a 3 hour bus ride from our homes. This hook up gave us a discount on the room (we each paid about 75.00 for all 4 nights) and we got 40% off on the lift tickets! The runs were pretty good. The snow is all man made and overall made for good skiing, in my opinion.

Dan and I skied 3 days and although he had to wait for me here and there (he's really good on the ol' skis), I was able to keep up for the most part. I fell a few times and the third day was icy and so cold, and I was slipping and falling all over those hills... some of the wipe outs were pretty funny, some kind of painful, but not too bad.

We played cards and board games. We went to the arcade and gamed it up. There was a billiards room where we shot pool. We went bowling! And, of course skiing! It was a really fun trip. Woo hoo!!
